BFAR - 7 Central Visayas Multi-Species Nursery Demo & Training Center

Central Visayas Multi-Species Nursery Demonstration & Training Center covers 36 hectares of brackishwater pond and 1 hectare for supporting facilities and structures.
The main focus of the center is nursery rearing of selected species such as Chanos chanos (milkfish - bangus), Siganus guttatus (orange-spotted spinefoot rabbitfish - ketong) and pompano.
The center also demonstrates feasibility of marketable-sized production of milkfish, rabbitfish, pacific white shrimp (Liptopenneaus vannamei), blue swimming crab (Portunus pelagicus); value-adding/fish processing (deboning, bottling, etc..) of milkfish as well as maintenance of milkfish and grouper (Epinephelus sp.) broodstocks.
